Additional charges for extra pickups/vehicle/motorway: The vehicle provided will depend on the number of travelers. Additional charges may apply for extra or oversized luggage requiring a larger or additional vehicle, as well as for pickups or drop-offs outside city limits (charges will apply for both private and shared transfers). A motorway stop of up to 30 minutes is available at an additional cost of 300 THB per stop. Requests must be made at least 24 hours prior to travel, and this charge is payable directly to the driver.
Private transfers do not imply that the vehicle is at disposal. The vehicle will only pick you up and drop you at the attraction at specified timings.
Seat-in-coach (SIC) transfers are shared services with other passengers. You may experience a waiting time of approximately 30–45 minutes depending on traffic conditions, hotel location, and other scheduled pickups.
For SIC transfers, the guide/driver will look for you in the lobby, concierge area or call the hotel room. If no answer is received from room, the guide/driver will leave after the waiting time and it will be considered a No Show. Also, the driver or guide will look for you in the hotel lobby or concierge area.
Pickup timings for shared (SIC) transfers are subject to change based on your hotel location and route planning.
Pickup Rules along with the waiting time: Guests are requested to be present at the hotel lobby at least 5 minutes prior to the scheduled pickup time. The maximum waiting time for private transfers is 15 minutes, while for shared (SIC) transfers it is 5 minutes. Failure to report within the specified waiting period may be treated as a No Show.
